Standard (EADGBE)
Fiendish wonder in a carnivals wake,
Dull caresses once again irritate
Tread softly stranger,
Move over toward the danger that you seek
You think excitement has receded,
Then the mirror distracts
The logic of the trance quickly reaches and grasps
Handsome and faceless
And weightless your imagination runs
And now its no ones fault but yours
At the foot of the house of cards,
You thought youd never get obsessed
You thought the wolves would be impressed,
And youre a sinking stone
Cos you know what its like to hold the jewellers hands,
That procession of pioneers, all drowned
In the moonlight theyre more thrilling,
Those things that he knows
As he leads you through the grinning, buddled, blowers in the snow,
Watching his exit is like falling off the ferry in the night
Inevitables gather to push you around,
Any old voice makes such a punishing sound
He became laughters assassin,
Shortly after he showed you what it was
And now its no ones fault but yours
At the foot of the house of cards,
You thought youd never get obsessed
You thought the wolves would be impressed,
And youre a sinking stone
Cos you know what its like to hold the jewellers hands,
That procession of pioneers, all drowned
If youve a lesson to teach me,
Im listening, ready to learn
Theres no one here to police me,
Im sinking in, until you return
If youve a lesson to teach me,
Dont deviate, dont be afraid
Without the last corner piece I cant calibrate,
Lets get it ingrained
